The Sunday Funnies

Getting Old

1. I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.



2. Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers. Now they drink like their fathers.



3. I didn't make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.



4. I decided to stop calling the bathroom the "John" and renamed it the "Jim". I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



5. Old age is coming at a really bad time.



6. When I was a child I thought "Nap Time" was a punishment. Now, as a grownup, it feels like a small vacation.



7. The biggest lie I tell myself is "I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it."



8. I don't have gray hair; I have "wisdom highlights"! I'm just very wise.



9. If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would've put them on my knees



10. Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.



11. Why do I have to press one for English when you're just going to transfer me to someone I can't understand anyway?



12. Of course I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.



13. At my age "Getting lucky" means walking into a room and remembering what I came in there for.



14. Actually I'm not complaining because I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later. I don't have to go to school or work. I get an allowance every month. I have my own pad. I don't have a curfew. I have a driver's license and my own car. The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant. And I don't have acne. Life is great.

Yeah, WTF is up with that? One time, I had pressed 1 for English and got someone with a very thick accent. I couldn't understand anything she was saying, so I asked if she could transfer me to someone who spoke English. She replied with "I speak English". I hung up.
